In an attempt to write up some scripts to allow simple management of the
various XML files, I think the easiest way, for me, is to use perl.

At the moment the vague plan is
WPKG.pm
 -> WPKG::Hosts.pm
 -> WPKG::Packages.pm
 -> WPKG::Profiles.pm

The client management code, ie cgi page will call WPKG.pm which will
open the xml files using the other three modules. A skeleton of
WPKG::Profiles is included below for a brief idea of what I am thinking.
The client code will essentially run

$wpkg = new WPKG("Directory");
$wpkg->add_host("foobar", "custom");
$wpkg->add_profile_package("custom", "msoffice");

The modules then will do all the magic in ensuring that "msoffice"
exists and that "custom" is a valid profile-id.

Or direct addressing if required in:
$wpkg->{packages}->{wpkg1}->{name} = "Windows Packager sample 1";

The main aim is to make writing a web interface "easy" as it is all
calls against perl modules which should strip requirements for worrying
about concistency/XML formatting/...

Any problems, suggestions before I go further with writing this?

there will be problems for sure when you first release it :))

but go ahead, I can certainly help at least in testing.
